​
Required shortcuts

Jumper relies on default DaVinci Resolve shortcuts and menu paths to work around gaps in the Resolve API. If you use custom keyboard shortcuts, these features may not work correctly.
Custom keyboard shortcuts will break playhead movement, Match Source, and related features. Use DaVinci Resolve’s default shortcuts, or restore them for these actions.
DaVinci Resolve must be set to English for the menu automation (Workspace -> Active Panel Selection -> Source Viewer) to work.

​
Troubleshooting

​
Playhead doesn’t move when marking in/out

Jumper uses Shift + I (“Go to in point”) to move the playhead after marking in/out. If the playhead doesn’t move, or the search term appears before the in point, you likely have a custom keyboard shortcut that overrides the default. See Required shortcuts above.
